    1992 T600 Stem

    Are you picky about rise angle and clamp diameter? There are lots of MTB and hybrid stems out there that are similar. Most are going to have an extension with rise and will have a 25.4 clamp. Plenty of 25.4 drop bars exist, so the clamp diameter is not a big deal if you're not picky about the...

    Rick from Philly

    Sounds like a nice project. Are you going to put big tires on it? I'd be interested to know what will fit the H frames. I think the older SH hybrids may have more clearance, just guessing based on chainstay lengths. From the catalog we know that 38 mm tires fit the H frames. I'd like to...

    Wanted Downtube Shifter Boss / cable stop mounts

    I have one that's probably broken in the same place as yours. See this thread for a pic and my thoughts on repairing them. Second link is for an aftermarket repair part. http://community.vintagecannondale.com/threads/broken-downtube-shift-lever-boss-for-a-95-r300.254/#post-1338...

    Glad to help. Enjoy the bike.

    Bad boy ?

    I would think that's a great deal.

    Bad boy ?

    Looks like a 2003 Bad Boy to me. It was a CAAD3 MTB frame with a steel fork. Nicely equipped with XT. Originally came with narrower road tires but this one looks ready for the trails. Nice rigid MTB, unique in the line-up in 2003.

    Can you help?

    Looks like a 1998 SuperV 3000 Raven. Fairly rare and valuable to the right person. There were some durability problems with the early Raven frames, so they aren't as desirable as they might have been otherwise.

    Cannondale C800?

    Looks to be a essentially a 1996 H800 with the charcoal pearl paint from the H700 and a chain guard. Seems that there were any number of models that were only available in Europe, especially commuter types.

    Hi From Tucson

    Looks to be in great shape. I think it's a 1994 model but the catalog picture shows decals of a different color. All the 1993 model year MTB frames had cantilever dropouts. 1994 saw the introduction of the 3.8 series frames with more conventional dropouts. Thanks for posting.

    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    The forks in the photo are a pretty close match. I've seen more variance in separate mixes of the same code. If the Fatty is original, the repainted fork looks just a bit lighter to me. I think the other two blues you posted look lighter than the 5017.

    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    The RAL 5017 looks pretty close to my eye.

    Unknown Cannondale mountain bike

    I don't believe it's a Cannondale. I've never seen a Cannondale that had weld beads left showing.

    Serial number on my hi mod frame

    It's a 2010 model. You can find it in the 2010 European catalog here: https://www.cannondale.com/en/USA/Support/BikeArchive

    Serial number on my hi mod frame

    I have print catalogs here from 2013-2016. Post a pic of your bike and I'll try to figure it out. List of components other than Red will be helpful. Here's the 2013 version, Mariner Blue with Race Red and 40 blue accents. Sorry, can't get the file to upload.

    Serial number on my hi mod frame

    Newer than we usually deal with here. What do you want to know about it?

    CAAD4 ... thinking about buying

    I would have to look around and measure the rims on which I have 28 mm tires. I'd guess that I have run 28s on rims of 19 mm or so. The tightest clearance point is usually the brake caliper or the underside of the fork crown, that is to say circumference rather than width. I suspect that a...

    CAAD4 ... thinking about buying

    I meant that the fork would bring good money on its own. I haven't looked for a Slice fork specifically. Last Cannondale fork I bought came off Synapse. I met the guy on a street corner in Chicago and gave him $50 for it. I'd expect to pay more for almost any 1" fork in similar condition...

    Vermont here...

    What are your priorities on wheels? The nice thing about Campagnolo is that they haven't changed the freehub design since 1997, so there are lots of hub and wheel options out there. If you are OK with a conventional 32 spoke wheel, the oversized axle 10-11 speed era hubs are a great choice...

    CAAD4 ... thinking about buying

    Sounds like a 2000 R800T that got special paint. The blue CXP 23s were only offered in 2000, and the 105 triple and Coda parts are correct for an R800T. There were a couple of grey fades in 1999, but they were both on R1000s which were CAAD3s. The Reynolds fork was never offered on a factory...
